Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Nicolas Refn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rick Robinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Robinson has chosen Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd.

I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dayton Clarke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gim Allon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Clarke kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Bob Marley - Jammin'. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
